Kreuzberg is a fantastic neighbourhood where punk rock stores and street art are nestled between Kebab joints and hidden gardens, but the area around Kotbusser Tor U-Bahn Station (pretty much the central station of the neighbourhood) has become a bit dicey in the past years....More

We went there looking for Turkish food. Turkish food is available all over the place and you can choose from several restaurants once you reach there. But what worked for us was the very different atmosphere here as compared to rest of posh Berlin. This...More

Very cool neighborhood. Tons of small restaurants, cafes and bars. Lots of Asian food, not only Chinese and Thai, but Vietnamese, India, Nepal, etc. Went in the afternoon with my kids, and it was perfectly fine.

Kreuzberg is a wonderful part of town. I feel like it's an authentic part of Berlin. Nice cafés, restaurants, and bars. Colourful artwork and gritty buildings. Remains of the Wall still present (or at least you can see where it has been and how it...More

Kreuzberg is in transition. Whether it helps I don't know, but nowadays it is not the nicest part of Berlin.

Kreuzberg

Berlin's revolutionary heart and immigrant roots canboth be found in Kreuzberg, but this centralneighbourhood is beginning a new chapter. In the1950s and '60s, Turkish guest workers settled aroundKottbusser Tor, while in the 1980s and '90s,rambunctious squatters and artists gathered to live acarefree life here. An old hospital even became ahotspot of riots between squatters and police. Today

you can still find the best kebabs in town and manyunderground clubs, but a lot has changed as well. Thehospital has been transformed into an art center, andincreasingly you will find new urban cafés,restaurants and designer shops. Rising housing pricesand gentrification threaten the spirit of this areaalong the Spree River, but the neighbourhood’s legacyis upheld by a very engaged community fighting topreserve its rebellious identity.

I have never used the Hop-on Hop-Off, but I am quits sure you can get on from any point.
Are you arriving at Tegel Airport or Schönefeld? Tegel is basically close to the center (6-8 minutes). In any case there will be a bus just outside the arrival terminal. Get on the bus and get off by an underground (U) I recommend you to download the map and prepare where to get on and where to change line. It´s very convenient in Berlin.
The taxi´s in Berlin offers a spacial system called "kurzstrecke". Meaning if you stop a taxi in the street and travel max 2 kilometers, the price is only 4 euros. But you need to tell the driver you want this special tarif.
My favorite places for shopping in Berlin are these:
Friedrichstrasse (Berlin Mitte). Simply a beautiful street for shopping. In general the area Mitte is incredibly nice.
Hackesche-Hoefe This area is also very nice. Many small galleries, an outdoor market, small special shops and cafes.
Area around Kurfurstendamm. If you look for something upscale, you have to go to the famous shop KaDeWe. Europe´s biggest shop. 6th floor is dedicated to food and beverages. Many small restaurants, beer and champagne bars. Awesome!
Good luck!
